    Looks like Sky don't have any rights this season. According to this it'll be streamed on nba.com for anyone in Ireland. Hopefully they'll stream all star saturday night too.

    You can pick up sky cards on ebay that will get you Five and Five US.

    While I'm at it, does anybody else think the "Superman" dunk just plain sucks?? He doesn't even dunk it :confused:

    Jordan and Brent Barry were soaring from the foul line 10-20 years ago, this guy puts a piece of tape 2 yards inside the line and place goes nuts... what gives?

    ESPN have the International rights from next season on, so the NBA should be back on NASN.

    From commentary I've heard it's impressive cause he was so high up he could throw it in!

    He's 7ft tall though, big whoop!

    Gimme Jordan and 'Nique battling it out for the title or JR Rider's between the legs throw-down any ol' day of the week... an' throw in some Harold Miner (who was only 6'4") while we're at it...

    Mind you, I thought the guy who won it this year had one real impressive dunk when he tapped the ball off the glass in mid-air and slammed it in...

    Ya he does dunk it!!If you watch most dunks in the Nba they don't even touch the rim!A dunk is when power the ball in the basket you don't actually have to grab onto the rim!



    And.............Dwight Howard...........Watta Man :D:D
